Sunday School – Celebrate Christ

Wayne Moore — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 15:38:39 +0000

We are excited to be using a new Sunday School series: Friends and Heroes. This exciting new DVD series is an animated adventure which introduces children to the stories of the Bible in an appealing, fresh and memorable way. Based in a fascinating and turbulent period of history, 69-71AD, children love the stories. Join us at 10:00 am on Sunday morning. Celebrate Christ with us!

Check out the Friends and Heroes website at www.friendsandheroes.tv

Senior High Students have a Sunday School that explores the correlation between being a Christian vs. current events. This group discusses current items in their lives and will occasionally attend the Adult Forum.

If you are interested in being a Sunday School teacher, please contact Nate Wiegand at (402) 871-1659. FLC offers help and support year round in planning and teaching Sunday School classes.

Ash Wednesday

Wayne Moore — Wed, 10 Feb 2010 15:49:54 +0000

Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the forty days of Lent, wherein Christians commit to a season of fasting, prayer, and repentance as we walk those forty days in step with Christ toward his crucifixion and, ultimately, his resurrection. These forty days recall the forty days Christ spent in the wilderness after his baptism, as well as the wandering of the ancient Jews in the wilderness after the exodus from Egypt. It is a time to put ourselves aside and to seek after God with singular focus.

As we walk together on this Lenten journey, our focus is on prayer and the various methods of prayer in which we can connect to our triune God as well as the Divine in each of us. Come and join us at First Lutheran Church on Ash Wednesday, and walk with us as we begin our Lenten journey toward the very heart of Christ.

Journey With Us

Wayne Moore — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 15:59:45 +0000

Prayer is defined as a noun, the part of speech that is used to name a person, place, thing, quality, or action and can function as the subject or object of a verb, the object of a preposition, or an appositive. Here at First Lutheran, we are concentrating on prayer during our Lenten journey. We have purposed to make prayer an action verb, the part of speech that expresses existence, action, or occurrence. It is our belief that prayer expresses the existence of the Almighty, a God of action, and the author of all that occurs. Journey with us this Lenten season as we explore different ways to commune with God. Our Lenten worship services are held on Wednesday evenings with a shared meal at 6:00 pm and worship at 7:00 pm.
